Yes, she's making an impact on him, and developing a real friendship. I like having him laugh, too. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

Thank you very much. You'll have to wait until she returns to her time to find out.  Thank you very much for the review and the pretty stars.

Thank you very much. Oh, I have a few things planned I hoep you will enjoy. But as far as affecting Snape, I can't answer that now, can I? You'll have to wait and see. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

Thank you very much. I sent SW the next cahpter this morning. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

You are most welcome. Yep, that’s pretty much what’s going on, Slytherins loving seeing a Gryffindor getting into trouble, and her housemates feeling sorry for her but at the same time glad it’s not them.

Hermione uses her revision guide and color codes everything. Now if someone doesn’t tell her their schedule when she asks, that’s on them if they miss a meeting.

I’m delighted that you like the subtle way that the familiarity is seeping back into their relationship. It’s still student/teacher, but yes, he cares, more than he’d like to or that he’d admit to anyone. However in private he doesn’t feel the need to be as guarded around her, he’s still reserved and secretive, but it’s the two of them – much like it was and could be. That is the influence of the past friendship coming out. It will and has had a dramatic change in him, and no, I’m not that other woman. lol

I’m delighted that you liked the scene of Hermione’s lesson with Harry and the Weasley boys. Nope, no questions. Everyone knows she learned it from a book. *cough* Mad-Eye Moody. lol

Me too, that was a favorite mention in the books so I really love using it in my fanfic stories when I can. Serves the Toad right.

Thank you for reading and  for the review. I love your opinions and thoughts. Hugs.

LOl ah well. Thank you for readign and for the review.

Yep. Thank you for readign and for the review.

Thank you so much for saying that! I'm writing this as a psycological piece, and playing therapish for these two, so I have a lot to 'work on'. I'm glad that it's not boring. Thank you so much for the review and good news - I'll have another one ready soon!

oops - smacks self on head - where is my mind?  Plight-Trothed Bride is the psychological one, this is the complicated, mutiple time jumps, mutiple time line story. *smacks head*   I'm glad that you like how there friendship and student/teacher realtionship seem to blurr every so often. Yes, he likes her, but she's still too young, and he misses her in a way and feels he has to be sly when he wants her around. But things are changing and in time... who knows what I'll do. lol  Thank you for reading and for the review.   (forgive my eariler stupidity, it's late here and past my bedtime. Yes, that's my excuse.)

Hehe that's perfectly fine! I'm in awe at how you're writing three stories at once and it just so happens that I love them all! I'm interested to see what Severus thinks about (but doesn't say) because he's still quite mean to her! It's also got to be difficult for her to be older and in a teenagers body (although I'm sure some women wouldn't mind at all) she's actually having to ACT the teenager too - that's the annoying part. Extremely well written :)

In my version Hermione is a teenager. She was only with Severus about a month and three weeks, but it was enough to leave a lasting impression on both of them. Her use of the Time-Turner to repeat lessons and extend her day to complete assignments also lenghtened her year, but it was still the same year, and although both Dumbledore and Mr. Latimer were keeping track of how much she used it and how many times she jumped back, no one else was. She was fourteen her third year and had a fourteen year-old's mind and attitude - well, normal for Hermione - and it's not like in A Change is Going to Come by livvy6 when she was stuck in the past.(Although I love her version as well.) So I'm not doing the 'having to act like a teenager' bit so much as showing that she's a bit moer mature at times, and with certain situations, than her contemporaries. And she now understands Severus better than she had, isn't afraid of him anymore and trusts shim... for now. There is sixth year, you know and I'm not changing canon that much.

Oh yes! I definitely get that she's more mature.  I love how they've started to become more friendly with each other.  It's got to be difficult for Severus!

Prolific, but still learnig the SP&G things needed for posting on this site. However, I'm plugging along and will have another to submit soon. Thank you for reading and for the review.

Thank you very much. Sorry, about the death, but something really huge was needed to get Severus to act and this was what my mue told me to write. However, there's hope!  Thank you for the review. Happy reading! 

Yes, it's was about time that he took charge of the group. lol Besides, as he told her, he knows what they face. Yeah, that bit with the charm was fun to write. Thank you for reading and for the review.

I'm glad. Things are coming along. It's taken a lot (and I've been playing therapist with them, too) to get them this far along. He's allowing her to be assertive because he knows it's for the best. He wears the pants, but it's nice to let another choose/lead once and a while. Thank you for the review.

I'm so glad. Thank you for reading and for the review.

I'm so glad! Hope you're having a gtreat weekend.  Happy reading.

Yep, they're are - and they are such a good match. I hope to have the next chapter up soon - the one that answers the questions raised by chapter 4!  Thank you for the review,

Thank you, brayer. I'm enjoying typing Severus as a young man, I can have bits of Professor Snape come out, but he can be nice and playful with her as well. The hike was a lot of fun to type.  I'm glad you liked the unicorns.Well, I couldn't have a totally perfect day, and having Avery butting in made it fun. Even forcing Severus to shower was a hoot.  I have read a bit of what 'life' is like in VIctorian mill town homes, row houses that are two up and two back, with a common bath in the back of the houses, probably communial. I'd hate taking a bath too if I had to go out in the rain and cold to get to the bathhouse. brrrr grrrr. So taking one a week seems to fit with Severus' background and it wasn't uncommon for people in the Victorian age to bathe once a month.

Thank you for the review. I hope to have another for you real soon.

He's hooked her as well, I think. lolYes, the comedy in the Slytherin commonroom, showers even seeing Severus' bed - I could have made it a unmitigated disaster, but chose not to. Thank you for the review.

Thank you very much. I hope to have more for you very soon, and in Sept, I'll be revealed! Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

lol This time he'd actually grew to like her so the parting was a bit more awkward. It's not so much as suspecious, but Severus wasn't 'around' doing things so much this last two weeks, but things will be back to 'normal' now - until she comes back. Thank you for the review,

.

lol, He's not uesed to the affection of wanting to hug someone 'good-bye' and he's a teenager, so it's awkward. BUt thanks to the diary, he knows she's coming back. Thank you for the review, agian,

. 

LOL wow I rated a third reading? I just imagined that she was getting stir crazy and he had wanted to take her to Hogsmeade with him, but couldn't, so this was a good option for them both. I'd have loved that hike with Severus too. I have read several interpretations as to Severus' hygene. And I have looked up what Victorian workers housing would be like, and mill town row houses... the 'two up and two back,' that Spinner's End seems to be and figured that if there was a 'shared bath' kind of thing, he'd hate bathing. Possibly grew up only bathing once a week, so it's his habit.  The book - working that in a bit later.Yes, they are becoming friends, and yes, he finds her easy to be with. You'll have one chapter, #9, the 'answers chapter' then her third bounce back in time. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars,

Thank you very much, sunny. It was fun to write. Thank you for the review.

I keep trying to have anough Professor Snape in young Severus, because after all, they are the same character, only different ages. I had a good time writing the 'outing' scene and why he decided to take the risk. Besides, I used to love hiking as a kid, and could see Severus enjoying it too. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

I'm glad that you are enjoying this story. It was fun to give them a outing. I used to love hiking, and I could see them both having a good time doing it. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.

OH, yes, it's hard not to see the difference. SInce Hermione and Severus have formed a friendship, and he's not all that used to physical displays of emotions, of course the hug was awkward. Thank you for the review and the pretty stars.
